I was hoping this would be a new era of literature published by or in cooperation with Sun, a rebirth if you will. My expectations had been a little high as I anxiously awaited this book. Upon reading it I was greatly disappointed by the shallow level of the content. In all fairness I could imagine it's hard to cover all of the wicked cool useful pieces within Solaris 10 while still keeping it to one book (under 1000 pages). However this book basically read like a reference to what man pages you should read for more information without really getting into much detail.
If you want something to actually give you applicable skills in a certain Solaris 10 topic get the Bill Calkins exam prep books and read the sections your interested in. You'll walk away with more skills and understanding.
As a die hard Solaris user/advocate for the past 15 years I'm still puzzled why the Sun training and published books are so technically shallow. It would be nice to see something between the reference material located in [...] and the in depth articles that come out as "blueprints", and niche articles in bigadmin.
